REYNOLD HOOVER is the CEO of LA28, the Organizing Committee for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles. He oversees the planning, delivery and execution of the Games and was appointed to the role in June of 2024.

Before joining LA28, Hoover served in senior civilian leadership roles across the U.S. federal government and spent more than 35 years in the U.S. military, culminating in service as a three-star Lieutenant General. Throughout his career, he led some of the most complex logistics and operational missions ever undertaken, earning the Department of Defense’s highest non-combat award. That experience—building teams, operating at scale and delivering under pressure—directly informs how he is preparing for the 2028 Games in Los Angeles.

Hoover graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point and holds master’s degrees in public and Private Management from Birmingham Southern College, and in Strategic Studies from the U.S. Army War College. He received his law degree from The Catholic University of America’s Columbus School of Law.
